When I take a week off from posting blogs? For starters, my Manchester United Red Devils continue to flail helplessly in the quicksand that has become the reign of Erik Ten Hag. It seems like rather than accept responsibility, he thinks he can fire/trade his way to molding a team in his image. But soContinue reading “See What Happens?”

It’s Not Like it Used to Be
Nothing is. Nor should it be. I say that wistfully, after getting a glimpse of the upcoming Derby Day clash between my beloved Manchester United Red Devils and the powder blue faggots from Manchester City. I am a lot of things, but I am not stupid. If I was still a betting man, I wouldContinue reading “It’s Not Like it Used to Be”
Team Loyalty
I don’t get fair weather fans. You know, the ones with all the gear, know all the latest news and buzz about the team, but as soon as the team suffers a bit of a downturn, off the bandwagon they jump. I remember being in Sun Devil stadium in Tempe, Arizona the last time NotreContinue reading “Team Loyalty”
Le Dans Macabre
More than five-hundred mass shootings in The Greatest Country on Earth….. So far. What a tragedy. A beautiful 440-lb. brown bear was euthanized because human swine, deserving of loss of life, decided they were obviously raised by bovine grandparents and simian parents and had to throw out their trash and garbage uncovered and littered throughoutContinue reading “Le Dans Macabre”
Just Another Day
of infamy. When President Franklin Delano Roosevelt delivered his, what has come to be known as the “day of infamy” speech,” he was alluding to the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor Naval Base on Sunday, December 7, 1941 by the Empire of Japan. But unfortunately, it is not the only date which is infamous inContinue reading “Just Another Day”
Just Me Being Me
So the Joe Biden family is staying at a place up on Lake Tahoe. I wonder if it is the same place the Corleone family stayed… The friggin’ planet is ON FIRE, but there’s no global warming. Right. I am going to reserve judgement until I get ther full story, but tragedy struck a fourteenContinue reading “Just Me Being Me”
More Sports Injuries
I wrote about how far sports injuries have come, or rather the way they are treated. As much as I love European football (soccer), I still can’t stand it when an ultra-fit racehorse of an athlete gets knicked on his boot and down he goes, writhing in ungodly pain and what looks like a certainContinue reading “More Sports Injuries”
Sports Injuries
If you participate in contact sports, you will be injured. Unavoidable. Men and women suffer and live with the results of playing sports. The manner in which injuries are dealt with have changed. (Oh really? Ya think?) “Rub some dirt on it.” Not just an expression, but many an old-school coach’s philosophy to minor injuriesContinue reading “Sports Injuries”
Gone But Not Forgotten…
I hope you didn’t forget me, but I have been swamped putting together and pulling off a charity benefit adoption event and concert for the local Humane Society. It was not a piece of cake. Unforseen circumstances, as in a death in the family and the absolute worst thing a committed performer can do: no-call,Continue reading “Gone But Not Forgotten…”
Happenings
They are putting up a two-billion dollar amusement park amid all the hustle and bustle of northeast Oklahoma, just off Route 66. Over by that old steer skull. Talk about setting yourself up for failure. Imagine jumping on a plane, exotic locales and lush tropical gardens dancing through your head as you lay back toContinue reading “Happenings”
